Discipleship

Life's a journey and for us Pirates, it's also an adventure. And just like any adventure, there are going to be ups and downs and everything in between. We know college is a fun time to grow and to learn, but we know that it can be a little scary and a little stressful at times, too. That’s why we’re here to make sure that whatever you face on your journey, you have the tools you need to keep on “hazard zet forward-ing” through it all, one day at a time.
 
At Campus Ministry, we won’t just help you ask the big questions, we’ll help you live the answers every day. Come see how the timeless message of Jesus Christ can transform your whole world around you and help you be the person you want to be. God’s got something great in store for you at SHU…let’s help you discover what that is.


FOCUS & SPO Missionaries

At SHU, we have a dozen young adult “missionaries” living right on campus who are here to help you discover how your faith has real meaning for every aspect of your life: studies, social life, dating, and major life decisions. Our missionaries desire to help you ignite and feed the fire of your faith through one-on-one conversation, small-group encounters, Bible studies, lectures, social gatherings, retreats, meals, hikes, and many more events throughout the year. They’re eager to connect with you!


Community of St. John (CSJ)

The Brothers and Sisters of St. John desire to reach out to you by providing the tools you need for authentic personal growth and formation in your Christian faith. At SHU, the Brothers and Sisters provide many opportunities to grow and deepen your faith, including: spiritual direction, faith formation groups/classes, hikes, and much more. Learn more »


Give Yourself a Break!

Jesus took a break and got away once in a while…you should, too. Throughout the year, we organize different retreat opportunities for you to get away, take a break, have some fun, and explore what God is trying to saying to you. It might just change your life! Keep an eye out for more details.

“Before I came to Seton Hall, I wasn't religious at all. Since I've been here, I have truly encountered God and I've been able to grow in faith. I'm able to ask questions and get answers that make sense.” (Kayhlynn, 2026)

“I have grown much in my faith during my time here. I grew up Catholic, but the extent of my faith was going to Sunday Mass. Seton Hall has showed me how to truly live a Catholic life through personal prayer, worship, and community. It has also showed me how to truly be a part of a community that is on mission.” (Brian, 2023)

“Getting involved with Campus Ministry has made me want to learn more about how what Jesus said and did 2000 years ago means something here and now.” (Jennifer, 2026)
